A memorial was inaugurated to pay tribute to the victims of the Glória elevator accident. The memorial is composed of a centennial olive tree and 16 limestone blocks, each representing one of the lives lost in the tragedy. The choice of the olive tree as the central element of the memorial brings a symbolism of peace and memory, while the limestone blocks physically mark the commemoration of each victim. The Glória elevator accident resulted in the death of 16 people, a number that corresponds exactly to the stone blocks that make up the monument. This tribute seeks to preserve the memory of the victims and offer a space for reflection for the community affected by this tragedy.
